Israel has specific competences in high tech systems.
Science and technology in Israel is one of the country’s most developed sectors. The percentage engaged in scientific and technological inquiry, and the amount spent on R&D is amongst the highest in the world.
Israeli scientists have contributed to the advancement of mechatronics, diagnostics, data analysis, medical, optics and solar.
In the trade mission Dutch companies will search for a comptence match with the high tech industry in Israel.
On 19 February 2011 Hurli has visited the FIRST Lego League, Benelux final in Kerkrade NL. Children between 8 and 15 years have constructed and programmed lego robots to execute defined missions. They have worked in teams guided by their schools. After regional combats, the final 100 teams played the finals in Kerkrade. Besides the performance of the robots, also the presentation of the team and a medical product proposal was part of their experience in technology. The leguage is organized by Stichting Techniek Promotie, based on an international format from FIRST.

As an successing activity of the Technology Investment Roadmap, the DSPE is developing activities in collaboration with Brainport industries, with involvement of Hurli.
To name it, it is called the 8-projects. They address:
•Introduction of Roadmapping in the Supply Chain
•Collaborate technology development (CFT2.0)
•Position of the company in the chain: WoW, Standardisation, IP, Specificy and acceptance of modules
•New products initiation
•Education
•Collaboration with knowledge institutes
•Branding of the HCHMLV (High Complexity, High Mix, Low Volume) industry
(This are 7 projects; another project to be defined)
Started 1-9-2010, the DSPE is developing a certification program for post-academic precision engineering education. Hurli participates in setting up the program office, doing the marketing and contributing to the program committee. For further details see www.dspe.nl and click certification.
